Uh, yeah, can be.  The small database is made like so:

test.ndb:
        sigtool -f Eicar-Test-Signature > $@

where the argument to -f is a regular expression.  So the database seems to 
contain four matching signatures.  Your database (like mine) probably has much 
more matching signatures, such as Win.Test.EICAR_NDB-1, whose names don't match 
the above regex.

This is something we should ask to ClamAV developers.  avtest.conf also 
contains allmatch (since it's useful when configuring different actions for 
different viruses).  With --allmatch, clamscan duplicates (or triplicates) 
messages too, even if the small database contains a single virus:

ale@pcale:~/tmp/courier/avfilter/svn/tests/testsuite.dir/09$ clamscan  
--allmatch -d ../../small eicar.mail
eicar.mail: Eicar-Test-Signature.UNOFFICIAL FOUND
eicar.mail: Eicar-Test-Signature.UNOFFICIAL FOUND

Fine.  I'll change that command to "egrep -i '^ClamAV-Found: .*Eicar' 
eicar.mail".

Thank you for the fix.

Correct, reject is the default.  You probably need to set "database" to the 
same directory you configured as "DatabaseDirectory" in freshclam.conf.  Also, 
recall that clamd.conf is not read; please see avfilter.conf(5) if you need to 
set clamav options.
